HER REVENGE Chapter 28
Chapter 28 Alina POVThe car ride was quiet, but not the suffocating kind of silence I’d known before. Dante didn’t fill it with idle chatter, nor did he drown it out with music. He simply sat there beside me, his presence enough to stretch the quiet into something steady. His hand never let go of mine. Not once.My eyes wandered out the tinted window as the city blurred past. Towers of glass, steel, and ambition rose high, glinting against the morning light. I knew Dante belonged to this world. He wore it like armor, breathed it like oxygen. I, on the other hand, felt like a stranger in borrowed skin.“Breathe,” he murmured, without looking at me.I turned, startled. “I am.”His lips curved faintly, but his gaze stayed forward. “No, you’re holding it in. Like you’re waiting for the ground to disappear under you. Stop.”I didn’t argue, though my throat tightened. I exhaled, shaky. He squeezed my hand once, wordless, and it grounded me more than I wanted to admit.By the time the car
HER REVENGE Chapter 27
Alina POVThe first thing I felt when I woke up wasn't sunlight,it was warmth. I blinked my eyes open. Dante’s chest rose and fell beneath my cheek, steady, grounding, the kind of rhythm that could lull me back into sleep if I let it. His arm was slung loosely around my waist, heavy with exhaustion, but not crushing,just holding, just keeping me where he wanted me.For a moment, I didn’t move. I let myself linger, my fingers brushing lightly against his shirt, listening to the way his heartbeat thudded beneath skin and fabric. It was faster than sleep should allow. Maybe he wasn’t fully under either.I tilted my head, studying him in the faint gray light filtering through the curtains. His hair was a dark tangle against the pillow, his jaw rough with stubble, his mouth soft in repose. He looked younger like this, stripped of the edges and fire he carried in the daylight.My lips curved despite myself. He would hate knowing I thought he looked gentle.Carefully, I shifted, untangling
HER REVENGE Chapter 26
Chapter 26Alina POVI sat across from Dante, watching him fold in on himself, his elbows pressed into his knees, his face hidden in his hands. His damp hair fell forward, dark strands curling against his temples. He looked less like the sharp, commanding man he carried himself as in public and more like something rawer, smaller.For a moment, I wanted to let him sit there. To let the silence punish him. But another part of me,the part that still reached for him in the dark, the part that still clung to him when the world tried to pry us apart,rose up.I crossed the room slowly, my bare feet whispering against the floor. When I reached him, I stopped, standing just in front of him. He didn’t lift his head. He didn’t even flinch.“Dante,” I said softly.He gave no answer.I bent, lowering myself until I was kneeling before him. My hands reached for his wrists, pulling them gently away from his face. He resisted at first, but then his arms dropped, heavy and defeated, and his eyes met m
HER REVENGE Chapter 25
Alina POVThe ride home was quiet. Dante’s hand was tight on the steering wheel. His jaw flexed with every turn, his eyes locked on the road like he was afraid to look at me. I leaned against the window, my head pounding from all the crying, though inside I wasn’t as broken as I looked. My chest still burned, but not from grief. From fury. From the thrill of watching Barry finally stumble under the weight of my words. He deserved it. Every second of it.The car stopped in front of the house. Dante killed the engine but didn’t move. His hand stayed on the wheel, knuckles white. I waited for him to open my door like he usually did, but he didn’t. He just sat there, staring straight ahead. His silence crawled under my skin.Finally, I pushed the door open myself and stepped out. The night air felt cold and sharp against my damp cheeks. I walked up the steps, heels clicking too loud in the stillness. When I reached the door, I heard his door slam shut. Heavy footsteps followed me.Inside,

Chapter 24Camille POVFor a moment, I swore the kitchen tilted under me. My hand tightened on the counter edge until my knuckles burned white. Barry’s words sat there between us, jagged and raw, refusing to make sense.Is George truly the father of the child? The echo of tires screeching, of Elizabeth’s scream, slammed through me again. My stomach twisted until bile licked at the back of my throat.“What did you just say?” My voice was too thin, stretched like glass about to shatter.Barry dragged a hand through his hair, his eyes red-rimmed from a night without real sleep. He looked frantic, not sharp and calculated the way I was used to. His shirt was untucked, his tie tossed onto the table, his pacing uneven.“I said—” He stopped, his gaze snapping back to me, suspicion flashing there again. “Why are you so… shocked?”I swallowed, throat tight. My mind ran circles, trying to knit the pieces together before he could. If I said the wrong thing,if I let him see too much,it would all

Chapter 23Camille POVThe silence in the lot was suffocating. My ears still rang from the impact, from the crunch of Elizabeth’s car folding in on itself like it had been made of paper instead of steel. Even with the engine off, I could hear it — the echoes of glass raining onto asphalt, the scream that had died too quickly.I sat there, motionless, mask discarded on the passenger seat, my hands pressed against the steering wheel until the leather bit into my palms.I should’ve felt something more than this emptiness. Relief, maybe. Victory. Something sharp and clean to slice through the thick fog that had been choking me since last night. But all I felt was the endless beat of my heart, like a drum counting down to something inevitable.My phone buzzed again. This time it wasn’t Barry. A news alert flashed across the screen.BREAKING: Collision in Downtown District. Woman trapped inside vehicle, emergency services on scene.I clicked it open with trembling fingers. The photo was gra
